News for those that asked...

[Lie-in King]

Hi everyone! Several of you have asked recently after the health of my dearest friend Anne & I'd like to report back now, having spoken to her last night.

She & her partner have just returned from a short break in Lanzarote, where unfortunately it rained constantly! However, it didn't spoil the trip & she's returned feeling rested & refreshed.

She's still on her hormone therapy course, but her doctors have decided that they need to adopt a more aggressive posture with regard to the cancers. She's now scheduled for an intensive course of chemotherapy, beginning on 11th February & lasting (initially) for 5 weeks � 1 week on, 1 week off.

Naturally, she's not looking forward to the treatments, but refuses to let it get her down - "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!"

I'll be seeing her next week & shall, of course, pass on all the messages that you've been kind enough to post since she last spoke to you.

Please accept my apologies for using Q&P as a mini CB, but for most of the people that expressed an interest, this is their natural habitat!

As always, my good friends, many thanks for your continued support of Anne � it is much appreciated!

Lie-in King & Anne xx

Send my thoughts to Anne too please yer maj.
Chemo is tough but with all the support around her and her obvious inner strength she will cope, I am sure.

My friends wife (also Ann but without the E) is going though this and as you know lie-in they have good days and bad.All we can do is be there when they need a helping hand and hope for the best

More cheers! :-))

I hope everyone will accept my apologies for seeming to flit hither & yon, but I've quite a lot of phone calls to get through & as I'm stuck in the Dark Ages - just call me Arthur! - with dial-up, I've not much choice!

...And no, (especially to Harry), "Arthur" is not my name... :-)
